The State Administration for Market Regulation has organized Chinese scientific research forces to tackle key technologies for integrated space-air-ground greenhouse gas monitoring, successfully breaking through core technologies for high-resolution domestic satellite retrieval of carbon dioxide and methane column concentrations and emissions. This has broken the foreign technological monopoly in the field of mesoscale carbon dioxide flux detection lidar. This breakthrough in greenhouse gas monitoring technology has resolved the long-standing reliance on imports for China's mainstream satellite-based, air-based, and ground-based monitoring equipment.

The research team has successfully developed mesoscale lidar monitoring facilities, on-site measurement and metrology IoT devices, as well as inversion and verification algorithms for regional and sectoral greenhouse gas monitoring emission inventories. The related products can be used for high-precision monitoring and measurement of carbon emissions in national, provincial, municipal, industrial, energy, transportation, residential, and other sectors. The team also took the lead in drafting two meteorological industry standards, including "Specifications for Atmospheric Composition Observation - Greenhouse Gases," and three group standards. The relevant equipment has been approved as the first major equipment in the energy sector of Fujian Province.

Currently, the research results related to greenhouse gas monitoring have been applied in national, provincial, and municipal meteorological and environmental protection departments, as well as in industries such as steel, coal, and flat glass, achieving good demonstration effects. This greenhouse gas monitoring technology provides key technical support for standardizing China's greenhouse gas observations, accurately calculating carbon budgets, and scientifically evaluating the effectiveness of emission reduction efforts.
